2 CARS IN 1... FOR EVERYONE

Created in 2013, Poclain Powertrain continues Poclain Group’s tradition of innovation, who for nearly a century has been the internationally recognized expert in mobility and hydrostatic transmission.

Poclain Powertrain is revolutionizing 4x4 technology by making it available to passenger cars and light commercial vehicles that normally do not have access to enhanced traction solutions. In addition, the new technology developed by Poclain Powertrain should enable car manufacturers to offer their customers a reliable, economical solution that is just as effective as conventional mechanical solutions.

Poclain revolutionized the excavator market in the 1970s. Now, Poclain Powertrain is doing the same for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles with the principle of traction for everyone, everywhere in the world.

ADDIDRIVE MARKET INTRODUCTION

RELIABLE, SIMPLE, ECONOMICAL

A NEW VISIONWith Addidrive, Poclain Powertrain has redefined the use of all-wheel drive with a simple and economical solution applicable to every car segment on the market.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE FOR EVERYONE The perfect solution for everyday life.Addidrive is an affordable hydraulic all-wheel drive system which offers passenger cars drivers reinforced grip when needed, without increasing fuel consumption in normal driving conditions.

A SOLUTION FOR GETTING AROUNDWhen roads are risky or slippery… When you encounter bad weather conditions… When you leave the asphalt behind to explore new horizons… Addidrive provides the car driver with the right answer.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE FOR PROFESSIONALS For professionals that need their vehicles to be up for the challenges they face, Addidrive is the solution that makes it possible to accomplish the mission efficiently, whatever the wheather, road or site conditions.

FACT Mobility is a worldwide expectation. In growing countries, more and more drivers face less developed and poorly maintained road networks, with more demanding weather conditions. In more mature markets, car drivers’ attitudes are changing, becoming more focused on comfort and safety than pure performance.

Addidrive fits the needs of most drivers in terms of performance and comfort in everyday life

HYDRAULIC ROBUSTNESS AND POWER DENSITY

The very high power density minimizes the weight and makes the solution very compact.

Lightweight, small size components

Power available immediately and transmitted through high pressure pipes and hoses

Very low mechanical losses

AWD AND 2WD DISCONNECT MODES

The mechanical transmission remains the vehicle’s main transmission.

Engagement or disengagement of Addidrive can be fully automatic, based on driving conditions:

Addidrive is engaged as soon as necessary in anticipation of road difficulties

Addidrive is disengaged as soon as possible to minimize fuel consumption

In 2WD mode, integrated wet clutches ensure that Addidrive transmission is totally disconnected in order to provide a real freewheeling mode

TECHNICAL SOLUTION HYDRAULIC ALL-WHEEL DRIVETHE INNOVATIVE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

2 ARCHITECTURES, COMPATIBLE WITH VARIOUS CAR DESIGNSTwo solutions with the same performance bring modularity with respect to your design

ADDIDRIVE 800 – ADDIDRIVE 1600 In addition to the central motor and in-wheel motor architectures, Addidrive is available in two torque levels for the different segments in the automobile market.

Addidrive 800: primarily intended for vehicles in segments A & B, including small city cars. Addidrive 1600: intended for upper segment vehicles to light utility vehicles.

In-wheel motorsLight and modular

The smallest modular solution in the wheels.

Compatible with disc and drum brakes.

Central motorLean and powerful

To minimize the costs, the same motor provides the torque to the two rear wheels

DESIGNED TO BRING VALUE TO CAR DRIVERS AND CAR MAKERS FOR END USERS

EASY Inconspicuous when not used and instantaneously activated when AWD is required.AWD capabilities available to everyone on standard vehicles.

ECONOMICALFuel consumption closed to a FWD. Half the price of a mechanical AWD option.

PEACEFUL Reduce stress caused by poor infrastructure or harsh weather conditions.Broaden the driver’s horizon and open up greater possibilities.

FOR CAR MAKERS ECONOMYVery few chassis modifications.No electronic control needed to transfer the power to the rear wheels. Reduced integration costs when compared to a mechanical AWD solution integration.

MODULARITYDifferent system architectures to better adapt to all platform configurations.Compatible with the majority of vehicles, from the small urban car range to light utility vehicles.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY Affordable AWD, adapted to the widest range of vehicles and customers.

In 2015, the jury of the EQUIP AUTO international awards for Automotive

Innovation awarded Addidrive with a Gold Trophy in the “OEM – New

Technologies” category.

BENEFITS OF ADDIDRIVE TECHNOLOGY The very high power density minimizes the weight and makes the solution very compact.Wet clutches integrated in Addidrive components ensure extremely low losses when driving in 2WD.The modularity of the system allows car manufacturers to meet their design criteria.

TEST DRIVETHE BEST WAY TO EXPERIENCE ADDIDRIVE

TEST FACILITIESThe Poclain site in Verberie (France) has its own private test center suitable for personal cars and commercial vehicles, and dedicated to Addidrive test sessions.

Many different diving situations are available to test, such as slopes with different types of grip, mud, sand or forest track, all closely reflecting real life situations.

USER INTERFACEThe user interface, developed to deliver an interactive Addidrive experience, makes it possible to visualize how Addidrive works and to interact with it during vehicle tests.

DEMONSTRATION VEHICLES Three vehicles are available for test driving, in order to empower you to take charge and evaluate the effectiveness of the Addidrive transmission when driving on difficult terrain.These demonstration vehicles are based on mass produced cars transformed in our workshops.

DEMONSTRATION VEHICLES AND TESTS FACILITIES DEDICATED TO ADDIDRIVE

Hydraulic pump and in-wheel motor integrated in the demonstration vehicles chassis.

Central motor version under development with a car manufacturer.

SMART AND INTERACTIVE

Available on a smartphone or a tablet through a Wi-Fi connection with the vehicle.

Displays Addidrive transmission status during the tests.

Helps to fully understand the operating principles of the transmission.
